- MMA H.E.A.T. brings you UFC President Dana White's media scrum, which took place directly after the UFC 149 post-fight press conference. The first-ever UFC show in Calgary was by all accounts a disappointing show in terms of action, and Dana lets us know how he feels about the fights that took place. He also discusses the Middleweight landscape, when Cruz vs Barao might happen and what he thinks can be done about the reffing and judging in MMA.

@@stiperaddaraddaraddamiocic9708 haha
It was the woman who posted this video.
Lmao
13:50 damm Dana me too about mazzagatti working as a ref
I want the UFC to have another really bad event, just for the sole reason that Dana will be in a pissed off mood and will be more apt to go on long funny rants.
Down the youtube wormhole but this is awesome. It's amazing how he built the UFC to what it is today.
Dana, not always the nicest or logical, this though, seems completely reasonable. Thanks Ms. Bryant
Riddle was probably Rosenthal's "customer".
For those that want to go straight to the "Ref & Herb Dean" part go to 9:50.
You should really work on your video naming skills.
Herb Dean = Best pound for pound referee in the world
Big John's got the slight edge
Nah, big John.
this a joke right?
@James Kirk Any thoughts on this Silva v Nick Diaz talk
Is the strikeforce commentator also a reporter interviewing dana in the video??
Very interesting to hear Mauro asking questions...
Last I heard Mauro commentate was in the Bogeres vs Abril fight I think???
The title of this video doesn't start till 10 and a half minuets in...after Karyn asks her whopper of a question...
Thanks
Karyn great job as usual. You and Ariel are two of my favorite top mma reporters in general. No offense to anyone else I can't mention off hand.Your jobs not just as easy as, ask a question, get an answer, there's so much more to it and I respect your line of work.
Dana is awesome. So fair and level headed. On top of that his ability to bring forth his vision of business and express it in a way that others understand and are willing to go forth with is rare.
You're right. It's a ton of pressure. They have to think quick, observe carefully, circle to the right side, and more. And if they mess up, they have to deal with the ridicule or angers from the fans, Dana, or sometimes, the fighters. Refs make mistakes; it's natural. Yamasaki was pretty game that night, but he messes up a lot. Herb Dean ends fights too early sometimes. ETC But I agree with Dana with Yves and Josh. They just did something horrible against the progress of the fight.
Karyn Bryant delivers again. Thanx love!
because sometimes damn it, u gotta take matters into your own hands
or, if u want something done right, u gotta do it yourself
Danas reaction at 2:20 FUCKING EPIC thats why I love him!
hahahah i didn't notice that.. Thanks for bringing that to my notice :)
Dana have to pay a killer to cut him.Mazzagatti il the worst refree ever in mma.
13:50 "Mazzagatti still fu***** works!" LOL!
The beginning of this video made my ears do some weird shit lol
Neither, Mauro Ranello took over from Quadros in Pride his first event to commentate was Bushido1 and now works for showtime doing Strikeforce.
So how long until Faber gets another title shot?
Gotta love Dana's candor.
I like Rosenthal, he's good ref with a long record of making good decisions. Sometimes though he messes up like in the Weidman/Munoz, and the Leban/Stann fights.
Joe Rogan had the complete opposite view to Dana White about Kongo clinching against the cage.
Wednesday, Dana White said he's going to have a big announcement about the 185 division. I haven't heard anything and no one seemed to remember to ask about it. I guess the Lombard lose blew his plans up.
i hate hearing people getting interrupted with their questions over and over again by others questions... bugs me a lot.
True, Sonnen would still have to try hard to win the fight, even if that means grinding with him for the rest of 5 rounds and get a decision. But that back spinning fist was really not necessary at all.
Jones would destroy Silva, hands down. He's a monster man. He's a complete fighter. He can also take anyone down, anytime he wants.
I was wondering where I heard him before lmao
15:58 lmao
Mauro Ranello is his name his came into Pride after Steve Quadros, He is on the Fight network as well, think he owns or has a part share in it
I would say about 2-3 months.
yep he is
Big John wanted a raise.. That is why Dana do not mention him..
I think to make the fighters fight the UFC needs to offer $120,000 fight bonuses. A $120K bonus for fight on the night, knockout of the night, and submission of night. Will make fighters put a show.
I agree with you 100% except for that look that Dana had. I would have said that was Dana's "I've been proven wrong" look. He had no response for her logic and probably felt put in his place... so he didn't have a response for her :)
Barao vs Easton would be awesome.
Hes already thinking of retiring, he said he'd retire after his last 6 fight contract which ended after the Vitor fight he is not long from retiring and I already said I was a fan from years back long before the UFC and compared with his cage rage fights and the first few fights in the UFC he is slowing a little. But I'm going to enjoy all his fights because it won't be to long before he does retire, especially when he only fights 2-3 times a year he's only 5-6 fights from 40
Thanks Karyn for bringing videos that Ariel Helwani would not bother to upload
I want Sonnen-Belfort
Hi karyn.
What's with Dana and the steve mazagatti hate? I mean, only time I have ever seen Mazagatti mess up is when Brock was tapping vs Mir, and he didn't jump in quick enough.
mauro has the best voice
Barao got some really good tdd. I thought Faber would get him down a few times
at ufc 149 he stepped in and called time out after a great body kick, falsely thinking it was a low blow.
He had done other stuff as well.
I believe the last fx fight he stood there and let munoz take a massive amount of punishment before stopping. Even though it was pretty obvious munoz was fucked up and not fighting back.
I hear Mauro Ranallo!
"Mazagatti still works !" LOL
Yup. Kongo should choose NOT to make 100,000 grand in 15 minutes because you think it's boring. That fight sucked, but Kongo had a reason to fight light that. Jordan didn't and the ref didn't have a reason to let it go on. However, Kongo did what he should have.
Mauro Ranelo asked the first question about Bisping and Weidman in the first 10 seconds and a couple after I didn't hear Stephen "the fight professor" Quadros in it he may be but the first question asked was definitely Ranelo. I am 100% sure, watch a strikeforce video in another tab and listen to Ranelo's voice then switch straight here its Mauro for sure I would put money on it, Iam that sure
Probably would end up on the ground Silva's weak point is take-down defence, But he is and was very hard to hurt on the ground unless you can submit him or really throw him around like Rampage did in Pride or Jones did to Matt hammil. Jones might beat Silva that way, If the ref stopped it Sonnen could have just have easily fell trying the back fist then. It is what it is, I dont think Sonnen could win with out grinding a decision, its a big ask for anyone, Silva has a few ways to catch him
yellow cards for stalling (as in Pride) must be introduced to the UFC
Karyn is the best. she gets her interviews up the quickest. Not to mention she easy on the eyes....
100% Agree! Rosenthal is one of the best Refs out there.
@SullenMorbius U could not be more wrong mate. Karyn is one of the most professional yet down to earth reporters there is. Danas eyes were raised not cus of the question, but at the excuse for the poor Congo fight. Me like most true MMA fans think she is great, and does an amazing job of building a rapport with the whole MMA community and doing fun and informative interviews.
16:00 best part of the whole vid...lmao. dana made me laugh for once.
the ufc needs to co-fund a referee and judging training school with all the little athletic commissions pitching in. or nominate retired fighters to be judges.
I thought the Card was a hell of a lot better than most!
Sounds like I hit a soft spot. Are you really THAT guy I described?
cant wait for ufc150 main event.
Lavine isnt that bad, he may let a boring fight drag on but he definitely doesn't stop the fight prematurely which Big John and Herb Dean are guilty of. Herb is the man though.
Guy in the vid! sorry I'm getting confused on what his name is. Thought it was maruello.
I knew it.. Strikeforce commentator :)
Whenever i hear Ariel talk i imagine a huge nose holding a microphone
he has arguably changed the outcome of several fights with very bad calls. he hasn't been too bad recently (other than his last fight), but he really has made some shit calls in his career. When there is a problem, dana fixes it, and the only two things he is not allowed to fix are the refs and the judges. I would be pissed too
Cant see it happening, Diaz would have to come up and quick, Silva is near retiring and Diaz would have to win at least one fight to get a shot. But I think Silva would KO or TKO him unless Diaz could get him down even then it would only be a slight advantage to Diaz maybe a stalemate, Anderson is near enough his level of BJJ, Honestly think Silva's biggest enemy is time, at 37 its running out fast. Diaz would bring it tough he is relentless
my god do i agree with you....this guy is just bad. Big John, and Herb Dean two of the best. just let them do them all...lol
chael sonen vs rashad evans and chris weidman vs alan belcher make it happen Joe Silva
I've been a Silva fan since he started KOing people in Pride and seen him live at Cage Rage events. When he KTFO of Leben people were surprised but I wasn't. I had seen him TKO Rivera, KO Stout, Newton and Fryklund in devastating style. I like fighters who end fights, when he lets loose he ends fights in devastating fashion. But his biggest enemy is time he is 37 and unless he retires soon some body will make a big name for them self by beating an old Silva and that would be a shame
agreed! kongo fought that way in my opinion because jordan engaged in a clinch attempt first. and as for boestch, i think he lost the fight. hector took him down twice, had him hurt with the kick, and landed bigger shots. boestch landed extremely weak leag kicks, and had 1 takedown, and otherwise did basically nothing except bounce around. at least condit landed a hella lot of stirkes to somewhat justify his win. i like boestch, but he lost the fight. as did nick ring
you called?
hate when they just clinch all round
Herb Dean is the best ref.
Mazaggatti isn't the worst. He's close but Cecil People's, the ref of UFC 1 and Big John Mcarthy are tied for first place.
Me and Lorenzo rollin' in a Benzo!
thats a pretty good idea, he's a sound guy and he'd do the boxing industry a treat, and he's always talking about boxing so he clearly likes boxing, but he's already got too much work with the ufc and he probably can't handle it all, but awesome idea!
dana is absolutely right about the refs. watch the fransico riveira finish on delorme. roland was clearly out, and yamasaki just half assed and slowly and gently pushes riveira off, all while delorme is already out, and takes one more big shot that could have been stopped. same with perosh. im a rosenthal fan, but he was off again tonight. perosh was absolutely out cold and took another huge shot because the ref was out of position. they need to realize that a fighters safety is on the line
haha yo i have never heard dana like that "Mazzagatti still fucking works" hahahahahaha i laughed my ass off when he said that
This is by far the hardest sport for refs.. it sucks when they make mistakes but they don't always have the same angle as us so sometimes they see things we don't see and sometimes don't see we see and sometimes see things different than we see it. There are no replays, once a call is made it's final and the calls HAVE to be fast.. it's not like they can call a timeout and wait a minute to make up their mind. Sometimes their mistakes are dumb as fuck, but can't always blame them straight up
Dana is a great guy,the only promotor that says things exactly as they are.
Yup I always enjoy Karyn's interviews more than Ariel's.
ya darn tootin bispings one of the best 185's ... judges fixing a sonnen silva rematch for money rather than been sporting ppppsssshhhhhhh
Fighters make tons of excuses after losses.. He was giving a "So what" look because he hears excuses all the time..
I wouldn't care if they stripped the title of the guy who got injured. why should a weight class be paused for a injury.
I know, he already had a dislocated shoulder.
I'd like to see him fight at all
he doesnt stop fights when he should or stops em early.
thats funny cuz joe rogan was praising ref. lavign for letting them fight against the cage... me personally thought it should have been broken up at least a couple times.
Where did I say Dana likes excuses? I said Karyn provided him with relevant information that he did not have, which is true. Regardless of whether Dana thinks a dislocated shoulder is a good or bad excuse, the comment is relevant to make. A journalist is supposed to put both sides forward regardless of whether they believe it or not and Karyn did that.
Just like Fedor, got old, rusty, slow and careless. And I'm a huge Fedor fan. But grabbing a leg is much different than shorts, there's much more grip at shorts. It was obvious that Chael was giving his best to take him down on 2nd but it was impossible for him. Chael is one of the best wrestlers, Silva is no match for him when it comes to that but he used what he could.
If the ref did his job well, he would have stopped silva immediately. Silva would be on the ground for rest of the round.
i feel so bad for mazzagati
One thing Dana hates worse than any other thing I think is the reffing. When this issue is brought up he blows a gasket!!!!
Karyn provided him with relevant information that he did not have. There was nothing wrong with what she said. Overall she does great interviews.
I thought that was rosenthal or whatever his name is. I think mazagati just fucking up with late stopagges.
What about Big John Mcarthy? :(
Karyn, you are too sweet. Personally I think you should ignore the negative commenters (that a word? lol)
@TheLastFraudster and you do? He's the president of the UFC, and who are you?
Dana white is straight forward like a boss
how is Vera headlining a card after he lost 3 in a row and hasnt fought in over a year????
